We are owners of the 2015 Winnebago vista 30T, purchased new, just a couple of months ago here in Washington and agree with your observations regarding the poor handling. In addition to the poor handling this particular model seems to be plagued with an endless array of shoddy manufacturing issues that should have been caught at the factory, but were not.
Could we have caught the steering and handling issues during our test drives? Probably not, as most test drives in our experience has been of local nearby roadways typically guided by the dealership. The highway portion of the test drive was not enough to adequately gauge the motorhome's true handling. In my option, it is bordering on unsafe at highway speeds.
Let me just get this out and be very upfront, the dealer so far has been very responsive and tackled the issues. Another reality is, this motorhome sits on a Ford F53 chassis and is for all intensive purposes is an entry level class A motorhome. Yes, he is an attractive looking motorhome and owners of this particular brand of model, must be vigilant to ensure our family safety when operating on the highways.
